Answer:
t/8 + t/7 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question that,
time require for Jose to paint the house = 7 hours
time require for Brandon to paint the house = 8 hours
Suppose t means Full house painted.
To solve the question we have to figure out how much each of them can paint in ONE hour.
7 hours----t
1 hour ---- t/7
8 hours----t
1 hour ---- t/8
Equation
t/8 + t/7 = 1 (in one hour)
(7t + 8t)/8(7) = 1
15t/56 = 1
15t = 56
t = 56/15
t = 3.73 hours
